Help Getting Open NX Running On Mint Linux 14

I'm running Mint 14 Cinnamon at home.
I would like to use my desktop at work, which is running RHEL 5.1 with NoMa=
chine version 3.*.
I am told NoMachine version 4 is incompatible with version 3, and version 3=
seems to be unavailable. Does anyone know where to get a copy of version =
3? I haven't found one, so I decided to install Open NX on my Mint 14 comp=
uter at home.
My problem with Open NX is that I get this error message when I try to conn=
ect:
Error: Unexpected termination of nxssh
I think this error may have to do with the Open NX looking for paths that m=
ay not be there in Mint 14.
I read via a result from a Google search that Mint 14 is based off of Ubunt=
u 12.10.
So, I used the instructions for Debian based distros posted here:
http://opennx.sourceforge.net/download.html
I ran this command
wget -O - http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/felfert/Debian_6.=
0/Release.key | apt-key add -
Then I added this into a file in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/felfert/xUbuntu_12.10 .=
/
I then ran this command:
apt-get update; apt-get install opennx
None of the menu entries for Open NX did anything when I clicked on them in=
my menu. I looked at the properties of the Open NX client icon and found =
that the command was:
/usr/NX/bin/opennx
That path does not exist on my machine, only
/usr/NX=20
does
I tried rerunning the installation and got this message:
opennx is already the newest version.
I went into Synaptic Package Manager and it gave me this list of installati=
on directories for Open NX:
/.

After looking that list over I successfully started Open NX ( the title on =

I was then able to put my credentials into the Open NX client, but when I t=
ried to connect I got this error message
unexpected termination of nxssh
I tried running /usr/bin/nxclient with the -- verbose option from the comma=

Thanks in advance for any information.

I would run the nxclient with strace and see
what it is complaining about. (in the output of strace
you will see the actual execs and libs that it is looking
for, and whatever other files and their expected locations.
Use that info to create softlinks to the
actual libs and execs it is looking for)
I would create the directories/sub-directories for the path/locations
that the executive binary/ies are actually looking for under /usr/NX
(if that be the case), and create soft links in these sub-directories
to point to the actual installed locations in
/usr/lib/opennx/bin and /usr/lib/opennx/lib.
For example:
mkdir -p /usr/NX/bin
mkdir -p /usr/NX/lib
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/nxclient /usr/NX/bin/nxclient
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/opennx/bin/nxproxy /usr/NX/bin/nproxy
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/opennx/bin/nxssh /usr/NX/bin/nxssh
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/opennx/bin/opennx /usr/NX/bin/opennx
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/opennx/bin/pconnect /usr/NX/bin/pconnect
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/opennx/bin/watchreader /usr/NX/bin/watchreader
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/opennx/lib/libXcomp.so.0 /usr/NX/lib/libXcomp.so.0
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/opennx/lib/libXcomp.so.0.0.0 //usr/NX/lib/libXcomp.so.0.0.0

help!help!help!help!I am a student.I am going to make a simulation of a robot (FANUC
Robot M-16iB) under the matlab\simulink environment .
It is a normal 6DOF robot.I want to realize any angle and any speed
(under the max speed) and any position and orientation control. As I
just starting to do this new field,I have no experience about it. Can
you give me some simulation demo or examples for 6DOF robot? I am
very eager to get these.Please write back to me as soon as
possible,thank you!
